Let students in on your terms.
Comment enseignez-vous ?

Your 4:00 student shouldn’t walk in on the end of your 3:00 lesson. Students wait in your branded lobby until you admit them, so each lesson starts when you’re ready.

The problem
Open doors let the wrong people in
If anyone with the link can walk straight into a lesson, students arrive mid-setup, the previous lesson gets interrupted and a forwarded link can bring in people who don’t belong.
La méthode habituelle
The usual answer is to keep links secret and hope they stay that way, or to start late and let everyone pile in at once. Neither gives the teacher control over who comes in and when.
How Pencil Spaces solves it
The Waiting Room is a lobby the teacher controls. Students wait there and are admitted when the teacher is ready. The lobby can carry your branding, so even the wait looks like you.
Quels sont les changements ?
Calm, controlled starts. No one walks in mid-setup, and only the right people are admitted.

What it looks like
Dans la pratique
A teacher is still loading the day’s board when students arrive. They see a branded lobby; she checks the names, admits them together and starts on time.
In a 1:1 lesson
Your 3:00 lesson runs a minute over. Your 4:00 student waits in your branded lobby instead of walking in, and you admit her as soon as you’ve said goodbye.
In a group class
Twenty-two students wait in the lobby before the 6:00 class. You see a name you don’t recognize, leave it there, and admit the rest of the class.
In a virtual training
Participants join ten minutes early while you set up the first exercise. They see your company’s branded lobby, and you admit the whole group at 9:00 sharp.
In your classroom
Students open the Space on their Chromebooks as they sit down. They wait in the lobby while you finish setting up the board, then you let the whole class in at once.
In the training room
Participants open the Space on their laptops during the coffee break. They wait in the lobby until the next exercise is ready on the big screen, then you admit everyone.
At home
Your son clicks his lesson link a few minutes early. He waits in the lobby until his teacher admits him, so only people the teacher lets in can be in the lesson with him.
